Creating a Test

• The template folder is a good starting point as it contains each of the dependencies. The template folder is how your new project should look like when beginning.

• Create a new folder/directory for your project within the Root Directory nightwatch

• Within your new Project Folder, you'll need the following files to begin commands.py and nightwatch_utils.py

• For screenshots, create a folder/directory called, screens. This is referenced within commands.py. This is where your screenshots will be located.

• Create a new file for your test i.e: mytest.py

• For reference, please review the template for making a test here

• You will need to make changes to nightwatch_utils and you can refer here

• When you're done making your test, make sure that your new project folder contains updated versions of commands.py and nightwatch_utils.py, as well as a screens directory

Running a Test

Ensure that you are in the directory where which your new test file is located. Once you're in that directory do the following in terminal:
